I love to build a log tent thing when I have a perfectly fine cabin 100 feet away

Even one house would have been better than a monument to the guy who drone striked children

Two things can both be true, like how a honeybee and a cobra are both venemous. But clearly one is less dangerous than the other.

It's gonna be a day when liberals learn what a comparison is. Like I openly criticize China sometimes, yeah. I'm a communist after all and we like writing navel gazey critiques. But I live in fucking America, which does vastly more heinous harm to the world in one week than China does in decades. It's not a contest. Like most of my criticisms of China deal with their foreign policy. They're too neutral and they do things like sell guns to both sides of a conflict, like they sell guns to both Pakistan and India, and to both Isntrael and Palestine. But compared to what my country does it's no comparison. America is vastly more evil than China is or has ever been to the point that any criticism I give of China should honestly be dismissed because I'm a fucking American living in the hell country.

I would gladly accept 10x the amount of visible advertising if it meant I got even a fraction of the infrastructure of a typical large Chinese city

Dude I've been to Shanghai and from my pea brained American view it was the cleanest and most well designed city I've perhaps ever seen. You just compared tacky American bullshit made of parking lots and misery to a lovely walkable space with nice architecture. Like you can spit on the worship of consumerism on Huaihai road, yeah that's a problem, but it's at least an area built for human fucking beings to be able to exist outside.

We americans living in freedom are granted the exceptional privilege of choosing to endorse either genocide or also genocide

Yeah this is something I've somehow never considered. This would make sense for why all his friends were virulent anti-communists and state informants.

Oswald was truly a communist but that's one of the reasons the CIA chose him to be the patsy.

This is part of the reason why I believe in what's proposed by Don Delilo in the book Libra. The CIA wanted a false flag incident to encourage public and government support for regime change in Cuba. So they grabbed a guy who they had already been following, who had attempted an assassination already (General Edwin Walker), and had known sympathies for Cuba. So the plan was to get Oswald to take a pot shot at Kennedy, blame it on Cuba, then try bay of pigs again with air support this time. Except Oswald was better at shooting than they thought and the increased attention from multiple murder investigations caused the CIA to abort the whole plan. At this point in my life I simply can't imagine it was anything other than Oswald being a patsy for a combined effort of actors who lost something in the Cuban revolution, namely Cuban exiles, the mafia, and the CIA.

Oswald's CIA informant was the petroleum geologist George de Mohrenschildt, a prominent anti-communist who had already been a spy in Yugoslavia. He was also buds with George H. W. Bush. Like come on. The amount of funny business is just too much. Who has that much fed attention on them if there's not a plan involved?

I actually have some x-ray records from the USSR. The quality is kinda bad but they're neat to have.

China is a socialist state. China conducting commerce in Africa doesn't constitute imperialism.

Plague still exists mostly as a problem in poor countries without access to antibiotics. I think sheep get it too and it's a problem in livestock.

Also there was a large plague vaccination program in India in the 1890s
